Abstract: The present invention relates to preparation of biodegradable microparticles formed from polylactide-polyglycolide copolymers (PLGA) polymer and how to achieve sigmoidal release of active pharmaceutical compound from the microparticles. In particular, the present invention relates to emulsification of an inner/oil phase to an outer/water phase followed by quenching and a single drying step for the preparation of microparticles having a preferred release profile of, preferably basic/nucleophilic compounds such as risperidone. Alternatively the present invention is also suitable for hydrophobic compounds that have poor water-solubility and a high drug loading of >20%w/w is required. The release profile can be controlled by adjusting the degree of saturation of the outer/water phase with the organic solvent used in the inner/oil phase, the polymer concentration of the inner/oil phase and the temperature at the quenching step. In particular, an initial lag phase and a substantially sigmoidal release profile are achieved by using an outer aqueous phase over saturated with the solvent used in the inner phase at emulsification step, in combination with a low temperature during quenching.

Abstract: A reconfigurable aperture (200) includes a plurality of metallic particles (220) confined to a volume (216) extending across an aperture area. The metallic particles are repositioned within the volume to form opaque regions in the aperture area. The opaque regions, and transmissive regions between the opaque regions, can form a reconfigurable zone plate that can change the collimation of a microwave beam via diffraction therethrough. The zone plate can be located a fixed distance away from a microwave source and a detector in a housing, so that for any specified wavelength produced by the microwave source, the zone plate can reconfigure to have a focal length equal to the fixed distance. The reconfigurable zone plate can effectively collimate microwaves produced by the microwave source, can direct the collimated microwaves in a specified direction, can receive microwaves returning along the specified direction, and can focus the received microwaves onto the detector.

Abstract: A carbon-based electrode includes activated carbon, carbon black, and a binder. The binder is fluoropolymer having a molecular weight of at least 500,000 and a fluorine content of 40 to 70 wt.%. A method of forming the carbon-based electrode includes providing a binder- less conductive carbon-coated current collector, pre-treating the carbon coating with a sodium napthalenide-based solution, and depositing onto the treated carbon coating a slurry containing activated carbon, carbon black and binder. Fluoropolymer binders such PVDF are made up of carbon atoms, hydrogen atoms and fluorine atoms. A sodium napthalenide-based etchant contains metallic sodium in solution. The sodium reacts with the fluorine of the fluoropolymer, extracting it, which leaves the molecule unbalanced. During subsequent exposure to ambient conditions, hydrogen and oxygen atoms restore the equilibrium of the molecule. This results in a carbonaceous backbone rich in functional groups that are responsible for adhesion.

Abstract: Techniques are described for downlink coordinated multi-point (CoMP) procedures for access to a contention-based radio frequency spectrum band. A base station performs a contention procedure, such as a clear channel assessment (CCA) procedure, for access to the radio frequency spectrum band. The base station determines whether contention has been won for a time period, and communicates whether or not contention has been won to other base stations in a CoMP cooperating set. Based on the information exchanged between base stations in the CoMP cooperating set, coordinated communications is initiated to a UE with two or more of the base stations in the CoMP cooperating set.

Abstract: A magnetic coupling device for communicating continuous rotational or linear motion through a magnetic coupling of magnetic forces communicated from magnets operatively positioned on an oscillation assembly and a rotation assembly in positions sufficiently proximate to form the magnetic coupling. Employed to communicate an output force in a rotational direction from an input linear force communicated from a powered oscillation assembly, the magnetic force of the magnet communicating the force compresses the volume of ellipsoidal-like magnetic fields of the coupling alternately in unlike polar domains, to induce a smooth, blended polar continuity and communicate a continuous 360 degree rotational force to a rotation assembly operatively engaged with the magnetic coupling. The input force may be reversed to induce a continuous linear motion of a reciprocating assembly.
